In addition to the matrix, the display will show your pedaling speed, the number of Calories you have burned, the elapsed time, and your total distance. The display will also show your heart rate when the pulse sensor is used (see step 5). Note: If your heart rate is not shown, press the reset button to reset the pulse sensor. HOW TO USE A RESISTANCE PROGRAM 1 Turn on the power To turn on the power, press any button on the console. Note: If batteries were just installed, the power will already be on. 5 Measure your heart rate if desired If there is a thin layer of plastic on the metal contacts on the top and bottom of the pulse sensor, remove the plastic before using the pulse sensor. Metal Contacts To use the pulse sensor, place your hands on the metal contacts. Your palms must be resting on the upper contacts and your fingers must be touching the lower contacts. Avoid moving your hands. After a moment, the heart-shaped indicator in the display will begin to flash and your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds. WARNING: The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors, including the user's movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general. Note: If your heart rate is not shown, press the reset button to reset the pulse sensor. In addition, make sure that your hands are positioned as described above. Be careful not to move your hands excessively or squeeze the metal contacts too tightly. 6 When you are finished exercising, turn off the power To turn off the power, simply wait for about three minutes. If the pedals are not moved and the console buttons are not pressed for three minutes, the power will turn off automatically. 2 Select one of the resistance programs Each time the power is turned on, the manual program will be selected, as shown by the ÒP-1Ó in the display.
